A new film is being produced which aims to bring the stars of Bollywood and Hollywood together.

Screenwriter Sam Sterling's Shakespeare Goes Bollywood will comprise an international cast that may even include Brad Pitt.

Sterling was prompted to adapt one of the characters for Pitt after reading an article in which the Killing Them Softly star said he "would love to work in Bollywood".

"It's all so exhilarating - who would have ever thought that one day leading Hollywood stars as Tom Cruise, Hugh Jackman, Brad Pitt, amongst others have reportedly expressed their eagerness to act in a Bollywood movie?" said Sterling.
